Mopar 440-Powered Car Masher Has Killed 8,000-Plus Cars

The 440 Mopar is the engine of choice for destruction, or so it seems. Lore has it that the Chrysler Chelsea Proving Ground had an impact sled that was powered by two RB engines. Our friend David Hakim has a ’70 Road Runner 440+6 that was used by Wayne State University for crash testing, hauling cars on cables to their brutal demise. And now we have the Masher, a car-crushing device powered by a Mopar 440 and built by Turner Auto Wrecking’s Jerry Turner back in 1974. If you’re not familiar with Turner’s 100-acre yard of classic cars in Fresno, California, check out our huge gallery of photos.
